Parnass Tower, Observation tower in Plön, Germany
The Parnass Tower rises 21 meters above ground on a stone base, featuring a steel lattice construction with an observation platform at the summit.
Built in 1888 by the Plön Tourist Association, the tower includes memorial panels with Iron Crosses commemorating the First Schleswig War and Franco-Prussian War.
The stone base contains three commemorative panels and a portrait relief of Emperor William I, reflecting the military history of Schleswig-Holstein.
Visitors can climb to the observation deck positioned 85 meters above sea level to view the lakes and landscapes surrounding the town of Plön.
The tower stands on the Parnaß hill, a terminal moraine formation that provides an elevated natural foundation for the structure.
